Chapter 116 A Grand Wedding
Chu Junbai handed the wine bottle to Wu Dongchen, who was walking over, and said, "Put two bottles on each table. If you need more, go to the door to get more."
Looking at the fine wine in his hand, Wu Dongchen muttered to himself, "It's not my wedding day, so why am I being asked to do everything? I feel like I'm the busiest person here."
He saw Chu Junbai walk towards Mu Xiaowan and immediately understood.
"He forgets his brother for a pretty face; once he has a wife, his brother is nothing!"
"You're a fart? This is the first time I've ever heard of someone wanting to be a fart." Chu Shaoqing stuffed a candy into his mouth and put one hand on Wu Dongchen's shoulder.
"Hmph, your eldest brother is getting married, and you, third brother, are doing nothing. Your eldest brother is your own brother."
"My older brother doesn't treat me like a younger brother." Chu Shaoqing released Wu Dongchen and left.
"Over here." Just as Mu Xiaowan was about to find a quiet place to eat, Chu Junbai suddenly appeared beside her.
"what?"
"Would you like to sit at the same table as Mom and the others, or with Xiaohui and the others?"
“Are there any younger children? I’d like to sit at the same table with them,” Mu Xiaowan asked.
You must eat with the children at the banquet.
Chu Junbai glanced sideways at Mu Xiaowan, who was a head shorter than him, and saw her blink slightly, her lips curving upwards in a playful smile. He was taken aback.
"careful!"
The person serving the food nearly bumped into Mu Xiaowan while carrying a plate. Chu Junbai quickly pulled Mu Xiaowan into his arms to avoid the danger.
As Mu Xiaowan lunged forward, she instinctively grabbed onto anything she could. At that moment, she was tightly embracing Chu Junbai's waist.
Damn, that waist is amazing! Not an ounce of excess fat.
Chu Junbai's waist—it wasn't a waist, it was a deadly blade!
How exciting that would be!
Mu Xiaowan's thoughts gradually began to wander in the wrong direction.
Suddenly, my face felt hot.
Just then, Bai Jiao'e called for everyone to stop.
"Alright, everyone, stop fooling around. Take your red envelopes and share in the good fortune. Sit down and eat while it's hot."
Bai Jiao'e distributed the red envelopes, which were made of red paper, to the people who were playing around.
After receiving the money, everyone gave Bai Jiao'e face and sat down to eat.
As An Muxue was adjusting her clothes, she looked up and saw two people standing in the corridor, embracing tightly.
It also attracted a lot of attention.
That bitch dared to cause such a scene at her own wedding.
Trying to steal her thunder? Have you no shame?
Most importantly, Chu Junbai, who always kept his distance from all women, didn't push Mu Xiaowan away, especially in front of so many people.
An Muxue crumpled the wedding dress with her hands.
Chu Shaoze's eyes flashed with a cold light when he saw this.
He took An Muxue's hand and tightened it slightly, as if to warn her.
But she smiled gently and said, "We can go and toast our elders now."
An Muxue tried to force a smile, but she really couldn't.
She was almost passively following Chu Shaoze to offer toasts.
Chu Junbai looked down at Mu Xiaowan in his arms. In such a public place, had she become addicted to holding her?
Why are you still reluctant to let go?
Chu Junbai pushed Mu Xiaowan away and walked forward first, with Mu Xiaowan quickly following.
"You can sit at the same table as Xiaohui and the others."
Seeing that Chu Junbai showed no intention of sitting down, Mu Xiaowan quickly grabbed his arm and asked, "Where are you going? Aren't you going to eat?"
Chu Junbai glanced at the hands gripping his arm. He had never seen an adult with such small hands. If they were clenched into fists, he could definitely wrap them around his arms.
"I'll eat later, I'll go help out now."
This heartwarming scene between the two was witnessed by everyone. Some people were whispering among themselves, suggesting that the couple wasn't as estranged as rumored.
Everyone says that this country girl is not good enough for Chu Junbai, that she is neglected by the Chu family and disliked by Chu Junbai, but now it doesn't seem to be the case.
The couple has a great relationship.
It's just a pity for Chu Junbai. He was outstanding in every way before, always surpassing his older brother Chu Shaoze. But from today onwards, Chu Shaoze will leave him behind.
Look at the extravagance of this wedding, how could Chu Junbai compare?
This wedding was the most extravagant in the provincial capital in recent years.
Chu Junbai is no match for him at all.
Look at the second wife's family, they're all smiles.
Mu Xiaowan didn't think much of it. She went out without eating breakfast all morning, but the person who was supposed to pick up the goods didn't come. Afraid of missing the person, she didn't go out for breakfast either. Now it was past 12 o'clock, and she was starving.
Mu Xiaowan was enjoying her meal when Bai Jiao'e interrupted her, "Xiaowan, the kitchen is very busy right now. Go out and help out, otherwise it will delay the serving of the dishes."
Mu Xiaowan hadn't finished her piece of chicken yet. The chicken wasn't stewed until it was tender, and she couldn't chew the tendons. If she spit it out after eating only half of it, how could she eat it later? But if she just spit it out, that would be such a waste. She's a thrifty and frugal girl.
When Bai Jiao'e saw that Mu Xiaowan was still eating when she asked her question, she thought to herself with disdain, "She's so low-class, she doesn't even know basic manners, let alone on such a big occasion. Country folk are country folk, they all look like they're starving ghosts reincarnated, they turn into this when they see something delicious."
However, although Bai Jiao'e disliked it, she absolutely could not correct it. She wanted Mu Xiaowan to be disliked and talked about by everyone, so that she could be happy.
Mu Xiaowan had no idea that Bai Jiao'e would think so much just because of her stubbornness.
In the end, she gave up the piece of meat.
"Second Aunt, didn't we hire people for the kitchen? They brought helpers too." Chu Zhihui sat next to Mu Xiaowan and asked when she saw that her sister-in-law was silent.
If Chu Zhihui hadn't asked, Mu Xiaowan wouldn't have known that the chef was actually hired; she thought he was brought in from the military, just like when she got married.
"Oh, isn't there not enough people?"
Mu Xiaowan also said, "Second Aunt, you're just too kind-hearted. Since we've made money for them and they promised to bring helpers, what if they suddenly say they don't have enough manpower and need our help halfway through? Should we give them the money or not?"
Bai Jiao'e cursed inwardly, "It's just work, why all this fuss?"
"Of course we'll give them the money, but then again, we're doing this for our own good. They may not care, but we should."
"Then let's all go, it'll be easier to help if there are more people." Chu Zhihui genuinely thought they were going to help.
Where in the kitchen is help needed? Bai Jiao'e did this only to humiliate Mu Xiaowan and let everyone see that this country bumpkin only knows how to do manual labor.
Who knew that Chu Zhihui would interfere? If she really gets so many people to help, people will say that they can't even afford to hire a chef.
The matter had to be abandoned.
Just as Mu Xiaowan was about to enjoy a peaceful meal, An Muxue arrived.
An Muxue raised a glass of wine to Mu Xiaowan.
Mu Xiaowan had no choice but to stand up.
Mu Xiaowan said, "You are the eldest in the family, so you don't need to toast me."
"Since I got married later, it's alright to toast you with a glass of wine."
Mu Xiaowan lowered her head and glanced at the wine glass. Why was the wine glass so big? It looked like a child's bowl.
